Abstract: A surface finishing device having a vibration generater fixedly supported to a device body, a vibration transmitting member disposed at a lower position of the device body and a heat source incorporated in the vibration transmitting member. The invention also discloses a surface finishing device of the above type further having a fluid-agent outlet opening defined in or in the vicinity of the vibration transmitting means and for discharging a fluid agent or a solution containing the agent.

Abstract: An adhesive composition can be provided which comprises a vinyl acetate polymer emulsion containing acetoacetylated polyvinyl alcohol as a protective colloid and a calcium silicate alone or the calcium silicate and an isocyanate compounded therein, which can solve the disadvantages observed in the adhesives of systems in which the isocyanates are added to the emulsions like the prior art, and which retains the adhesive strength for a long time, particularly has a little reduction in initial adhesive strength, and is excellent in water resistance (water-resistant adhesion) and also in heat resistance (heat-resistant adhesion) compared to those of the prior-art adhesives.

Abstract: A floor coating agent applying machine having a movable machine body, an applying member attached to the movable machine body for applying a floor coating agent onto a floor surface. The applying member includes a plurality of elastic rods vertically suspended from the movable machine body, with the rods being arranged in a loop-like formation as viewed from above the movable machine body, an eccentric rotary cam drivably attached to the movable machine body and rotatable on a vertical axis positioned inside the loop of the elastic rods and a circular recess vertically slidably fitted about the eccentric rotary cam so as to cause a rotational force of the cam to elastically deform the elastic rods thus producing vertical vibration of the applying member.

Abstract: A surface finishing device having a vibration generator fixedly supported to a device body, a vibration transmitting member disposed at a lower portion of the device body and a heat source incorporated in the vibration transmitting member. The invention also discloses a surface finishing device of the above type further having a fluid-agent outlet opening defined in or in the vicinity of the vibration transmitting member and for discharging a fluid agent or a solution containing the agent.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for forming a uniform, extremely thin film on the surface of plastics molded articles, films, sheets, synthetic paper, fibers, metal, and other objects, the film containing an anti-static agent, anti-fogging agent, anti-corrosive agent, mildewproofing agent, and the like. According to the method of the present invention, a homogenous solution or emulsion is prepared by dissolving a surfactant and agents in a solvent such as water with the aid of ultrasonic waves, and the solution is made into aerosol of fine particles by means of cavitation. The aerosol is brought into contact with an object, whereby the fine particles of aerosol are deposited on the object and a thin film of the solution is formed on the surface of the object due to the difference in surface tension between the surfactant and the object. After evaporation of the solvent, the agents are left on the surface of the object in the form of an extremely thin film.
